This particular book focuses on the county of Suffolk and the Lothingland region, providing valuable insights into the social and economic conditions of the area during the reign of Edward I. The extracts included in the book cover a wide range of topics, including land ownership, taxation, and legal disputes. Hervey's book is a valuable resource for historians, genealogists, and anyone interested in the history of Suffolk and medieval England. The author's introduction provides important context for the Hundred Rolls and their significance, while the extracts themselves offer a fascinating glimpse into the lives of ordinary people in the 13th century.
